Stay there for long

My final breath escapes my lips
As I drift towards the abyss.
As life’s true beauty floats away,
I say “I wish that I could stay. ”

But my own conscious drags me down,
Towards the sea of so much doubt.
I wish good riddance to my past
Because I know - I will not last.

As I reach heaven and beyond,
A single tear will slowly fall.
It will traverse fantastic heights
And down on earth will take up life.

From it will come another soul,
Whose fate is not as monotone.
I’ll share it’s laugh and happy days,
Hope down there for long it stays.
